Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Endings are not a tragedy to be first feared and later regretted but a necessary stage on the way to growth, says clinical psychologist and bestselling author of The One-Life Solution. Endings are a crucial way to get what we desire by shedding those things whose time has passed. The author addresses the benefits of concluding unsatisfying work or personal relationships, and he advises readers on diagnosing when the situation can be resuscitated or must be shut down. This "pruning" process can spark readers out of passivity or paralysis, getting them motivated and energized for change. With many examples of people moving on from untenable circumstances and through specific strategies for ending things well, Cloud advocates for powerful personal changes just in time for the New Year, and will give many readers the fresh start they crave.

Defining Reality

ByJohn Parrishon September 25, 2016

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

Henry Cloud has done a magnificent job defining the reality of the needed next step to move one beyond the confusion of being stuck. Through real life examples he illustrates the principles for creating clarity and movement. Some are profoundly simple but not always apparent like "you can't pick up something new until you are willing to lay down something else that's not working." Excellent insights for business and relationships - a must read!

Helpful in multiple areas of your life!

Bymikeymike3on August 4, 2017

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

Was recommended to me... did not disappoint! It actually led to a huge improvement in a screenplay I was writing: I ditched one sub-plot that wasn't working --and the others blossomed! That's what he said would happen. :)

Bought for myself and for a client

ByRivergalon February 7, 2013

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

This book is required reading for everyone who wants to see the necessary endings in their careers, business, and life, and wants to encounter them with wisdom. Was talking to a client about some necessary endings at his company (not people, but changes in the industry requiring a rethink of strategy) and this book readily came to mind. Gave it as a "thank you" gift for his business. Dr. Cloud speaks with clarity and wisdom about the reality of change, the ways to identify what kind of change is needed, and how to care for your relationships in a way that honors all parties.

A must read for when you feel stuck

ByAmazon Customeron April 17, 2016

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

This book made a world of difference to me when I was trying to work through the "should i stay or should i go" of a long term relationship. Not only did it guide me through the thought process necessary to move forward with my life one way or another, but it shored up my confidence in the decisions I was making. For anyone going through any kind of life change I recommend this book very very highly.

"YES," IT'S TIME TO STOP!

ByDelina Tyreeon December 25, 2014

Format: HardcoverVerified Purchase

I have found the book, "Necessary Endings" to be extremely enlightening.

It not only helped to put into words what I had been unable to express, but it also bought meaning and definiton to what I had been feeling.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone that needs to have or may think they need to have some sort of "ending" in a work situation or relationship.

This book provides you with the essential tools that are needed for a successful ending.

More importantly, it shows examples of "truth" that can be related to your current situation.

One of the Best!

ByC.H.on July 7, 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I read several business books each year, but this is one of the best.

I led a business retreat last week and used his insights often. So glad I stumbled upon this book. And this is not just good business book, it's a great "life" book. Tons of wisdom here.

One of the best books I've ever read!

ByAmeson April 27, 2017

Format: Kindle EditionVerified Purchase

I've recommend this book to so many people! It's such an easy read, very practical yet offers a lot of wisdom! It was one of several books that I read during my marriage separation. And it gave me so much insight that it (along with much prayer) helped me to KNOW what was best for me and my future.
